Energy is calculated as power*time, so give the wattage of 1200 W (equivalent to 1200 Joules/second) and time of 30 seconds, multiplying these gives 36000 J or 36 kJ of electrical energy.

If electrical charge or current is needed: Power = voltage * current, so given the power of 1200 watts and voltage of 120 V, current is 1200 W / 120 V = 10 Amperes. Charge is calculated by multiplying 10 A*30 s = 300 C.

A baseball of mass m = 0.49 kg is dropped from a height h1 = 2.25 m. It bounces from the concrete below and returns to a final h
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Impulse = change in momentum

mv - mu , v and u are final and initial velocity during impact at surface

For downward motion of baseball

v² = u² + 2gh₁

= 2 x 9.8 x 2.25

v = 6.64 m / s

It becomes initial velocity during impact .

For body going upwards

v² = u² - 2gh₂

u² = 2 x 9.8 x 1.38

u = 5.2 m / s

This becomes final velocity after impact

change in momentum

m ( final velocity - initial velocity )

.49 ( 5.2 - 6.64 )

= .7056 N.s.

Impulse by floor in upward direction

= .7056 N.s

What is the binding energy (in J/mol or kJ/mol) of an electron in a metal whose threshold frequency for photoelectrons is 2.50 u
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

binding energy is 99771 J/mol

Exlanation:

given data

threshold frequency = 2.50 ×  10^{14} Hz

solution

we get here binding energy using threshold frequency of the metal that is express as

E=h\nu_{o}    ..................1

here E is the energy of electron per atom E=\frac{x}{N}  and h is plank constant i.e. 6.626\times10^{-34} Js  and x is  binding energy

and here N is the Avogadro constant = 6.023\times10^{23}

so E will \frac{x}{6.023\times10^{23}}  

E = 3.19\times10^{-19}  J  

so put value in equation 1 we get

\frac{x}{6.023\times10^{23}} = 2.50 ×  10^{14} × 6.626\times10^{-34} Js  

solve it we get

x = 99770.99

so  binding energy is 99771 J/mol

The mass m1 enters from the left with velocity v0 and strikes a mass m2 > m1 which is initially at rest. The collision betwee
enot [183]

Answer:

1. False 2) greater than. 3) less than 4) less than

Explanation:

1)

  • As the collision is perfectly elastic, kinetic energy must be conserved.
  • The expression for the final velocity of the mass m₁, for a perfectly elastic collision, is as follows:

        v_{1f} = v_{10} *\frac{m_{1} -m_{2} }{m_{1} +m_{2}}

  • As it can be seen, as m₁ ≠ m₂, v₁f ≠ 0.

2)

  • As total momentum must be conserved, we can see that as m₂ > m₁, from the equation above the final momentum of m₁ has an opposite sign to the initial one, so the momentum of m₂ must be greater than the initial momentum of m₁, to keep both sides of the equation balanced.

3)    

  • The maximum energy stored in the in the spring is given by the following expression:

       U =\frac{1}{2} *k * A^{2}

  • where A = maximum compression of the spring.
  • This energy is always the sum of the elastic potential energy and the kinetic energy of the mass (in absence of friction).
  • When the spring is in a relaxed state, the speed of the mass is maximum, so, its kinetic energy is maximum too.
  • Just prior to compress the spring, this kinetic energy is the kinetic energy of m₂, immediately after the collision.
  • As total kinetic energy must be conserved, the following condition must be met:

       KE_{10} = KE_{1f}  + KE_{2f}

  • So, it is clear that KE₂f  < KE₁₀
  • Therefore, the maximum energy stored in the spring is less than the initial energy in m₁.

4)

  • As explained above, if total kinetic energy must be conserved:

        KE_{10} = KE_{1f}  + KE_{2f}

  • So as kinetic energy is always positive, KEf₂ < KE₁₀.

A baseball bat is 32 inches (81.3 cm) long and has a mass of 0.96 kg. Its center of mass is 22 inches (55.9 cm) from the handle
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

0.24 kgm²

Explanation:

L = length of the bat = 81.3 cm = 0.813 m

m  = mass of the bat = 0.96 kg

d  = distance of the center of mass of bat from the axis of rotation = 55.9 cm = 0.559 m

T  = Period of oscillation = 1.35 sec

I = moment of inertia of the bat

Period of oscillation is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{mgd}}

1.35 = 2(3.14) \sqrt{\frac{I}{(0.96)(9.8)(0.559)}}

I = 0.24 kgm²
